Bug ID: 486559
Summary: Desktop panels randomly not loading
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version: 6.0.4
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: crash
Priority: NOR
Component: compositing
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: buttbad...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
At random times while booting, the desktop panels are not appearing and the
desktop seems to have a crash
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Just boot and login using Plasma X11
OBSERVED RESULT
Sometimes everything loads correctly as intended. But some other times, the
desktop panels are not appearing. Their space is pitch black with the correct
size but doesn't load. The widgets are appearing but aren't moved if they're
too close, unlike the usual. Even worse, it seems to freeze the desktop
entirely, since no windowed program can be launched. (I can't even launch
spectacle to show a screenshot of it when it happens) The only programs that
works are the ones launched on boot before the panels are supposed to appear.
(discord vivaldi and yakuake in my case) The widgets are also frozen, and right
click doesn't do anything on the desktop. Rebooting might fix the problem. Or
not.
EXPECTED RESULT
The desktop should load correctly at every boot.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.1.0
Qt Version: 6.7.0
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Haven't tried on wayland due to other problems under wayland. Using Nvidia GPU
with proprietary drivers. The panels are floating type with transparency
effects. Not sure if it's related, but might be... Sorry if it has been posted
already, I looked for it.
